I wonder if it was partially rejected due to the use of 'webviews'.
- avighnay 13y agoAbsolutely not... I can vouch for it. Did you seriously think that would happen?
- tomasien 13y agoThat's not a thing
- drawkbox 13y agoSilly but this could be part of it. Apple directs people that just make an app that is a phonegap wrapper of a website to just make a website. I have seen apps be rejected for just being website wrappers or webview apps without other integration points. The fact that it doesn't tie in any services is also sometimes a factor. Integration of iCloud, GameCenter, etc always make for an easier review time.
- tomasien 13y agoI've submitted at least 10 apps to the app store that were just a webview wrapper, no problems. Anecdotal but, there you go.
- mnutt 13y agoI recently had an app rejected under 2.12 for using webviews. It was dependent on a service that needed OAuth, and I had used a webview just to authenticate. The reviewers rejected it even before attempting to authenticate, and specifically called out the use of webviews.
- chj 13y agoI had an app released one month ago, a simple wrapper around webview, and 1 page only. Went through well.
- stigi 13y agoI haven't tested the app (I'd actually like to), so I don't know how far they went with the web view approach. I could imagine that the graph feels pretty static, and taking a native approach and spent some more effort on a playful experience could already solve the rejection. No need for made up features. Keep it simple! That seems the magic of the app.
